If you ask me, there's nothing more perfect be it for day or night makeup than a red lip. I've been guilty in the past (this weekend in fact) of ditching a classic neutral lip in favour of a slick of scarlet purely because it makes me feel more "done". If the song...
When you’re a working girl (not Pretty Woman style, let me state) it can be pretty damn tiring waking up early every morning and spending a lot of time on your hair. Sometimes you just want that extra lie in or a chance to scroll Twitter and then get up and go. If you...
I know it's not particularly "ladylike" to talk about bodily functions or calls of natures (but then again I've never claimed to be Lady freaking Mary) but there is one part of my day which never fails to make me irate and fire off a flurry of tweets or unload a...
